Easter Has Come to the Kitchen!

Good morning my friends! I hope Spring has sprung where you are.....it is TRYING here, just not quite there yet. Easter is so late this year but the bunnies have hopped right into my kitchen to keep me company while I cook. Let's look around. I like to keep a vignette on this corner of the breakfast bar and right now it is this arrangement that I made along with 2 beautiful bunnies that were a gift from my daughter, years ago.

 As you know I always have a lamp on this side of the sink along with a few other pieces. The birdhouse lamp is a favorite and I placed a bunny in a cloche and another bunny in front of the lamp.

 The cloche has a nest on one side and a butterfly on the other side.

To the left of the sink is my dish liquid and this bunny planter. I gave this planter to my Aunt Bunny when I was a young girl....so that's MANY years ago. We lived with her and she was like a second Mother to me. I love having this.

 My fruit bowl was empty the day I took these but is usually full!

 A candle with lily of the valley on it and another cute bunny.

 I love this utensil holder that I found at Joann Fabric severeal years ago. I had the spoon rest for years and it matches so well! Then I found the dish:)

 Another bunny in a cloche and a dish for Joe's wallet.

Over here is the buffet area of the kitchen, which I love to decorate too.

 I found this scoop last year and love to fill it with different things.

 A nest, some white flowers and a bunny peeking out.

Thanks so much for your visit. 

Happy Spring everyone!!!

Bunnies in the Breakfast Room!

I am working my way through the house, sharing my Easter decor with you and today we shall see the breakfast/morning room. I gave my daughter a few bunnies and other decor this year but I still have plenty! Those of you who have been following me for awhile know that my Joe built me this hutch, when we lived in the last house. I have thought about painting it but it would break his heart so it will stay like this:) A collection of some of my baskets surround it on the wall.

 I would 2 garlands together for the top of the hutch. Then added a white lantern, a burlap bunny and another bunny that was made for me by a friend!

 On the first shelf I have Mr. and Mrs. bunny. The lamp and shade came from Walmart and the shade is burlap too.

The 2 small bunnies on this shelf are by Goebel, the company that makes Hummels. I inherited them from my Mother-in-law.

My large Faux chocolate bunny came from K Mart many years ago. She is so pretty. The chocolate egg with chocolate eggs also came from K Mart. The cement bunnies are perched on a cement stand.

 My other 2 faux chocolate bunnies are over here on these shelves. They are actually plant stands that are over 30 years old!

 2 script bunnies sit on this table that Joe made.

 Peter Rabbit stands here with a pot of lettuce! And another home made bunny sits in the basket.

Thanks so much for your visit.

Easter on the Mantle and Hearth!

Good morning! And, HAPPY SPRING!!!!! I am so glad it is officially Spring as I am DYING to get outside and do some gardening! I have to admit that I just LOVE bunnies! When you come into my house you can tell, I have a pretty large collection of them:) I love to decorate the mantle and hearth with them for Easter! I got a set of 5 LED candles at Costco. They have a timer and a remote which I love! You will see them lit further down in the post.

 The elephants and carved lanterns are a staple on the hearth now. I really love them both on here.

 On the mantle I placed 2 white bunnies. One has some mini flowers in her basket and the other has a head of lettuce. I decided to light the candles, just for you:)

 On the mantle I placed a head of cabbage, some large eggs, and some flowers.

 The blue and white jar is surrounded with some egg and flower branches.

 I made an arrangement of white tulips and blue berry stems in another blue and white vase. Next to it is a large bunny from Pier 1 and the egg opens and is a candle. It was a gift from my daughter's sister-in-law.

 The lanterns come on and the candles at dusk. I love the glow!

 Oh, and the set of candles from Costco was $20.00!!!!!

Thanks so much for your visit.

A Spring Greeting, Out Front

Good morning! We had 2 very Spring like days last week so I cleaned off the front "porch" and brought out my Spring wreath and some bunnies! I also put together an arrangement in my urn til I can plant real flowers in there. I can't wait!!! So, I want to wish you a big Spring WELCOME!

 It is so nice to have some things out to welcome friends and family. Spring is officially here tomorrow and hopefully the weather will cooperate:)

 I added some faux pink impatiens and white daisies to my bunny planter.

 I love bunnies and have some cute ones for out here.

 This large bunny came from Christmas Tree Shops several years ago. She is so cute holding her basket of eggs.

 I layered a pretty green checked rug under a Spring door mat.

 Some pretty, pastel flowers fill the urn.

 These front bushes will be blooming in a month or so...or maybe a little sooner.

 Thanks for stopping by!! Have a beautiful day. I am up for some retail therapy, since I did alot of cleaning out closets yesterday:)
